The Power of Project Profitability in Financial Planning & Analysis and Data Analytics

During turbulent times such as these, with the economic impact the COVID-19 pandemic is having the world, it is critical that companies can quickly reforecast, continually assess profitability, and identify cost efficiencies in a streamlined fashion that is not time consuming to the organization. This is especially true for government contractors due the volume of contracts and projects they have spread across the globe.

Over the last decade, SC&H has worked with many of the largest government contractors in the industry to do just that. We have developed a proven model to quickly reforecast and assess direct project profitability across business groups and organizational segments. However, we do not want to limit this capability to just the largest of government contractors — complex implementation costs and timelines should not be a barrier to entry.

In that light, SC&H has developed our very own “GovCon Quick Start Solution” packages, which are exclusive offerings for finance organization at small to mid-sized government contractors aimed at rapidly improving Financial Planning and Analytics capabilities.
